Let's list out what we already know:
Alexa's book is into 8 chapters
Rose's book is into 6 chapters
So since they are out of how many chapters, they number of chapters their books are split into will be the denominator of each fraction. Each girl has already read 3 chapters, so they'll have 3 as their numerator.
Alexa: 3/8
Rose:3/6
We can see that Rose is already at half of the book while Alexa's half would be 4/8, and she isn't there yet. So Rose read more of her book.

Mr. smith has 5 courses he teaches at the community college. his course a has 102 students with an average tardiness of 3 studen
Furkat [3]

The percentage of tardiness among the 102 pupils is 2.94.

<h2>Calculation of the percentage</h2>

According to the query,

Course A: Total number of students = 102

                   Number of tardy students = 3

Percent of students tardy in course A = (number of tardy students/total  

                                                                   number of students) * 100

  =(3/102)*100

  = 2.941

  ≈2.94

In case of course B: Total number of students = 85 & tardy student = 5

So, the percent of tardy student = (5/85)*100 = 5.88 %

Therefore, it is concluded that the percentage of student tardiness in course A is 2.94.

If a certain trip takes 40 minutes when you travel 50 miles per hour, how many minutes would it take if you travel 40 miles per
vitfil [10]

Answer:

It would take 50 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance, velocity and time</u>

The speed is the rate at which the distance changes with respect to time. If x is the distance, t is the time, the speed v can be obtained by

\displaystyle v=\frac{x}{t}

We know the trip takes 40 minutes when traveling at 50 miles/hour. The distance can be determined by isolating x in the above equation

x=vt

The given time is expressed in minutes, we need to convert it to hours. 40 minutes is \frac{40}{60}=0.6666...\ hours. The distance is

\displaystyle x=(50)(0.666..)=33.33\ miles

If the speed was 40 miles/hour, the same distance would be covered in t hours, taken from the above equation as

\displaystyle t=\frac{x}{v}

t=\frac{33.33}{40}=0.8333\ hours = 0.83333*60= 50\ minutes

6y+4=8+2y+2y
Combine like terms
6y+4=8+4y
Get like terms on the same side, subtract 4 from both sides to get
6y=4+4y
Subtract 4y from both sides to get
2y=4 IS the answer (even though it can be simplified further, that answer isn't one of the choices so 2y=4 is the equation simplified.)

10.
Step 2 was the mistake when you distribute a number you don't add (which is what they did to get 5x) you multiply to get 6x. So the correct step 2 would be
6x-8=12+2x
Becuase of the distributive property.

Hope this helped!
